- In this video I explain the rationale behind the design and contrast the practical application of these trigger groups. I also touch on the upgrades available for them. The intention of this video is to inform the end-user so they can make an informed decision on what suits their specific application.
I can promise anyone, should you ever pull your weapon and have to use it in a defensive environment, you will never comment on how the trigger had creep or a bad wall. That being said, the key is training and practice! Johnny, I have been a Glock armorer for 20 years and I always learn something new from you. Keep everyone shooting straight!
@@JanO209 Scott Cooper clearly addressed defensive environments; not competition or training environments. He was correct.
@@JanO209 alrighty expert
Speak for yourself. I was car jacked and had to pull the trigger a few times and all I noticed were my trigger sponging
I was speaking for myself! I remember a lot about the situations that I was placed in, trigger pull was not one of them.
@@ScottCooper136 Haha I'm just busting your balls man. Have a nice day (:
I’ll admit it, I was literally the guy last week asking about a combat trigger, -but- I’m a competitor, an instructor, and have decades of formal training after the military, so I asked about a competition trigger instead. Dude set me straight, and I’m now awaiting the arrival of two combat models. I fell into the normal “what’s good for most shooters, but I’m honestly a lot better than most shooters” routine. I’ve even told students “don’t mess with the triggers on your carry guns” while breaking my own rule. We learn, and we grow, or we die.
So happy to have found me Johnny Glock. I’ve been through a few different trigger combos and none of them were “it”.. I haven’t purchased yet, but from all the words he’s saying, it sounds like the combat group is exactly what I’ve been looking for. And now, even though I originally told myself I didn’t want any “bling”, I’m finding myself upgrading small things like slide locks and pins with a touch of color. My initials are JG…and they are engraved on the VEX. I’d say it’s a sign lol…that my wallet is just gonna keep getting emptied.
Johnny Glock: The Elon Musk of striker fired mechanisms. (That's meant to be a compliment)
Great videos always. So much knowledge and advise. Thanks for sharing.
This video cleared up all my questions, just bought the combat package 📦 keep up the good work man you have a dream job!👏🏽
Out of all your videos I've watched, this one here was one of my top vidios.
Thanks for your expertise with great explanations!
Be safe and healthy.
Just ordered my Flat Face Shoe. I put in the comments that I wanted it Black....I could not find where to indicate the finish. This will complement the Trigger kit I got from You almost a year ago. Thank You for making great products that truly work! Keep it Up !
Thank you again for being so informative on your triggers and Glock trigger system in general. I learned so much unique lessons that I can't get anywhere else. I bought 4 triggers from you and they are simply the best in the market. I also have other triggers from other reputable companies, and none comes close.(and yes, I do have that many Glocks). I buy your triggers sometimes as a way of paying for your videos because I truly believe your videos are filled with information that I should not get for free. My only suggestions is "please, for the love of God, work on my Sig P320 so I can change my competition gun!" In all seriousness, keep up the good work and stay safe.
I love my Johnny Glock combat trigger and shoe it is honestly worth every penny. I got one for my glock 19 and I'm getting ready to purchase another one for my glock 17. Best trigger setup on the market hands down. Thank you Johnny.
Thank you for the video. Makes me understand the differences in your kits much better.
Bought the combat yesterday with the upgrades and everything but the striker is on the way. Johnny sent me a message letting me know what was up. Cant wait to install it. Thanks Johnny! Awesome customer service!!
dang johnny. one hell of a salesman. this video convinced me to purchase the drop in combat kit.. as well as the flat face trigger shoe, as well as the upgraded striker. well, now im super excited and can say I've offically started stalking my tracking refreshing every 30 mins. cant wait till I get to test this out. Thanks my man!
thanks for all your great info. thanks to you i have a red dot on my glock 44 that runs great. it runs well with the suggested browning ammo, also aguila interceptor, and winchester 1300 fps rounds !! i just ordered your trigger , enhanced firing pin, and flat shoe. it is a great plinker.
JG great informative video. I truly respect your knowledge.
Just ordered for my 43x , can't wait to get it installed ! Love the channel
the striker upgrade with the drop in combat trigger in my G43X is unbelievably crisp I used the heavier of the two springs friends that shoot my gun are amazed how fast the reset is with zero creep
Yup, same here. The combat trigger in a 43X with the 4.5 spring is the bomb. I really prefer the feel of the combat trigger over the competition. I don't care for the spongy feel as much on the competition trigger. My competition trigger is on a Gen 3, so it could be a little different than on a Gen 5, I'm not sure.
Thanks Johnny for the complete Glock 48 Evolution X Combat Trigger. Exactly what I wanted. 3 1/2 or 4 pound trigger, my choice by just a spring change. Zero creep, Zero over travel, Crisp break with a Flat trigger shoe. What more could one ask for. Thanks again. Worth every penny, dime and dollar spent.
did you use a trigger pull meter to confirm it pulled at 3.5?
@@pourtierbeatz7804 yes.
Brilliant presentation JG.
Wisdom, experience, excellence, setting Glock design straight.
CD in New Hampshire 💥☮️🇺🇲✌️
You might have run it out longer than you intended but was Easy to follow and gave Just the info needed on differences and desirability of respective Combat and Comp Trigger set-ups. Plus, the Striker Upgrade info is Primo and All stuff is *Spot On* !
Awesome video as usual very informative thanks for all your time and effort.
Great video! I was able to decide on the combat trigger for my use.
Awesome Johnny, thanks for all you do. !
Really informative video. Thanks for all the info. I'm definitely going to have to pick up a the EDC and Enhanced Striker.
BTW, if you are trying to get the camera to focus on small details like the Striker or trigger shoe laser engraving, it helps if you flatten your palm right behind what you are trying to show (like you are back-framing what you are showing). That way the auto-focus will focus in on whatever is taking up the majority of the center of the camera.
And just when you think theres no way these vids can get any better/more informative than they already are theres a Red Green reference dropped lol. As usual, love the vids and all the info you provide
In for that G44 video! Got a Johnny in all my Glocks. Number one game changer...second only to training.
Okay, great video with awesome info content. Still a little skeptical that anything could outdo the NextGen triggers. But I’m gonna’ find out. Thanks so much for the commitment to the product and customers....
Well, I must say, I was looking for a second 10mm pistol that has more holster options after purchasing my Tanfoglio Defiant Stock Master 10mm. I made some upgrades to it and it’s FANTASTIC. Since things are as they are in society, I’ve decided to switch from 9mm to 10mm as my preferred carry option. I’ve always liked the Glock 20, I’ve got big hands, but I know I’m going to need to upgrade the trigger. It’s been awhile since I last owned a Glock and I had an Overwatch Trigger in my Glock 17 that I once owned. Looking for a trigger kit for the 20/21 has been a bit tough, right now. Luckily, I stumbled upon you and your trigger upgrades. So, I purchased your combat kit and ordered a new Glock 20 as well. I’m looking forward to seeing how it compares to my Tanfoglio, 10mm after I install the trigger kit w/ the metal shoe and Trijicon night sights. You seem to produce a rather high quality product. I hope to have high praise for it.
I recently purchased a G26 Gen 4 and didn't like the OEM trigger. I came across some reviews of your product and decided to install your Evolution X Combat Trigger assembly. Your shipping was fast and after watching this video, a few times, I installed it, and wow, what a difference. Thanks for your outstanding product, very informative videos, and emphasis on training and safety. Thinking about the next upgrade now.
No issues?
My favorite glock trigger system. Made my g19 sweet!
Seems like I just contacted you yesterday about this... Thanks for the advice.
Good to see your well, thanks the the education and entertainment as always! Have a good one
I have watched 10 Johnny Glock videos back to back. I thought I had good understanding of working on Glock triggers, and for the most part, I had the concepts correct. Johnny takes it next level; I learn something new each video. Love the videos and will soon order a combat trigger kit. I am convinced this is the best option on the market.
Awesome brother glad you enjoyed the videos and looking forward to exceeding your expectations with the combat kit
How’s it been for you?
Great video great polishing I need to work on it more hope to get to your level one-day
Thanks for the info. I keep all my triggers stock
Best Glock trigger I’ve ever used. Hands down.
I just ordered the Combat Trigger kit last week. It shipped a few days ago and is in transit to me now. I ordered it with the flat shoe upgrade and the striker upgrade. It wasn't cheap, but I do believe based on the knowledge Johnny Glocks has that I will be very happy with it. And If I am happy with it, I plan on ordering another one just like it.
@deucedeuce22oz Not for me. The trigger job I did on my Glock, the famous 25 cent polish job plus some reduced power springs, was far better than the Combat Trigger Kit I ordered from Johnny Glocks. And it was cheap to do myself, where as I paid $360 plus shipping for the JG trigger kit. So no, I wouldn't recommend it. Mine is sitting on a shelf in my garage and I have my trigger job installed in the pistol.
@@carllove3705 bullshit. A polish job on a factory trigger isnt going to reduce over travel or shorten reset at all, neither will the springs. Maybe you like it better because it has a lighter break but if it does then i would probably recommend against carrying it for self defense.
@@LinkxUSMC87 anything that reduces friction with the moving parts of the trigger assembly will definitely smooth out the felt trigger pull. Then if you read what I wrote you’ll see I used some reduced power springs, and that will reduce trigger pull weight significantly. If you try it you’ll see for yourself.
@@carllove3705 you clearly missed the enitre point of what i said. Im aware of what a polish job does, ive done them on all my glocks. All that will do is reduce pull weight and smooth out the break. As i said, it will do nothing for trigger reset travel and over travel.
@@LinkxUSMC87 Who said I cared about any of that? I bought a flat faced trigger that does reduce the overtravel, and reset. That is all I need. I'm not impressed by your experience or training. I spent 24 years of active duty military service, and then 10 more as a law enforcement officer. I am not interested in your opinions. I don't plan on reading or responding to anymore of your posts.
Always enjoy the videos.
Thanks
By the way bud, I have been practising my education on triggers. Started with a gamo big hunter, you know pellet guns are the hardest! Wet sanded two hours. Polished about an hour. Outcome, unbeleivable acuracy. Then I did my marlin 882 butter!
Love ur combat triggers dude I have 2 of them
A perfect Glock trigger job to me is just tweaking it so that there is a defined wall, and no roll through the break. The pretravel and resistance inherent in cocking the striker in the process makes it combat ready automatically for me. The clean defined break with no mush makes it great for target shooting. It is admittedly not super easy to accomplish that though, and typically I'm stuck with one frame married to one slide + parts for the engagement to be proper.
I like that 4.5 lb trigger for self defense I really like the dot conector couse it has a really strong wall .
I wish you had all your videos on a dvd
Thank you so much for your videos. I have one of your trigger setups and absolutely love it . You were talking about the G44 did you say you have a red dot on it if so please talk about it in your G44 trigger vid . What brand is it and and can you please explain how did you get it Mounted on the slide oh and what brand and grain ammo runs good with it ?
@johnnyglocks while adjusting the oem trigger for pre travel. Once it's set. We just leave it alone or remove and add loc tite
Just leave it

great information
Why don't your vids pop up for me anymore! Just heard about your trigger from another creator on here. Good to see ya!!
I need one of your competition triggers johnny. Ill be sending through an order form in the near future. Gonna miss the 15% off deadline(unfortunately) but hey, "thass da' vay da' veener cooks" as the finlanders say up here in MN.
THANKS!
Learned a lot
Hey Johnny, as a former Marine and retire LEO, I have a lot of experience with shooting firearms, M16, 1911, etc, and of course the Glock 19. The Glock 19 is good out of the box having previous experience with numerous other handguns, and it operates fine. I don't see any need for modifications, but of course, service is needed. Thanks for your great video. I always watch them because I am a Glock nut.
Hey Johnny, have you tried running these in polymer 80 builds? I know there are some tolerances that might be odd, but I was wondering if you’ve experienced any?
Thank you!!!
Looks great and thanks for the info! Is this available for Gen5 19?
New to the channel, you may have talked about it already but, have you done any work with filing down the 30274 ejector to a new angle to change the ejection pattern? I've tried about everything else besides doing that to stop brass from hitting my RMR on my GEN4 G19.
Hi Jhonny, great video!
I want to buy one of your triggers, unfortunately I live in Europe therefore I compete on IPSC and the rules demand a minimum 5lb trigger pull. Witch assembly would you recommend? Can the competition set work well at 5lbs or should I just go for the combat?
Sir, I don't care if your long-winded or not. I really enjoy listening to your instruction. Listening to you makes me want to buy your triggers for all my guns🤣🤣🤣
Just bought the combat for my mr920.
👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾Good information
In ipsc production with a minimum trigger pull of 3lbs , what would you suggest to use? Combat or the competition trigger system? Thanks
Dopeeenessssss!!!
It says on the website that the 43,43x,48 have the OEM shoe for the combat trigger kit. If i select the flat face metal shoe, will i get one for my 48?
Great Videos..How do I have my New 44 customized By Yoy
Will the combat trigger with flat face work in the Shadow Systems mr920
Hey love your videos
My dad knows I shoot a lot and that ammo is rare right now. He came across a bunch of ammo at big 5 and decided to surprise me. He ended up buying a crazy 1000 rounds of Geco Super Matrix 9mm Luger Ammo 94 Grain Frangible Lead-Free, but I've never shot frangible ammo before. From what I hear it can be extremely corrosive and even damage the breech face of your slide
Geco uses the sintox lead free primers.
Do you have any idea if these are safe to use without wrecking my gun? Especially 100 rounds worth.
Thank you for taking the time to read this and thank you for the fantastic info you put out.
Can you make the shoe with a black trigger safety instead of gray..?
When are the enhanced striker assemblies going to be available again for .45 acp?
On your website it does not give an option to choose what color JG Flat Face trigger. Is it only black that you offer now? Would like to purchase a silver or grey if still available.
Which connector comes with the Combat drop in kit?
You’re triggers are the best things that has happened to Glock. I have ran ZEV and Timney they are close to your combat triggers, but your Comp trigger is unmatched.
Hello. How do you compare the Timney alpha glock competition series to the Johnny competition trigger? I received both for my birthday and I want to install it soon. Also, the Johnny striker competition pin came with two springs, which would I use? Thanks
How to know if I buying a new or used gun?
Hi there, how can I know how old it's a glock gen 4 mos??
Great video dude
Would like to know what you think about the G26/27 triggers as the 26 is my carry of choice (small hands) and would like to improve my trigger some day
Great vids, keep them under 10 minutes though, most people don't watch 17 to 25 minute videos... love your work too.
This is based on what data? Because I can’t find anything that supports that statement. CZcams analytics state 20-30 minute videos are the most popular ones. Maybe you’re confused with TikTok?
hello greetings from austria vienna.
I have completely adjusted a Glock 19 Gen4 with Zev Tuning Trigger. but I want an even softer trigger, there is a softer trigger and a better reset. here with us there is no good weapons tuning shop
With best regards
Do you have a combat trigger for the g45, 9mm?
I don’t know if it’s only me but did he show the combat 1st and the competition 2nd? I’m a little confused lol
Would this work on a shadow systems mr920
Combat for my needs
Can you please guide me to your site, where i can purchase this trigger? Thanks..
is the first gun or
the second gun the combat?
I want JG TRIGGERS for my GLOCK FAMILY!!
Question johnny….if i change ur trigger shoe to a boogeyman one but use all ur components from the drop in trigger will i still have a 3.5 trigger pull or will the boogeyman trigger shoe mess with all ur engineering ?
I wonder if you guys send to Eastern Europe, it's high time I change some parts in my g34
buildng a p80 pf940c shoot kit. the trigger assembly came in parts. i have question .....is there a spring behind the trigger safety finger? thank u.
I'm not familiar with that kit
Johnny Glock perfection
Does Johnny ever offer a coupon code? 360 for the full upgrade set is a little steep for someone wanting to remain married.
@@orlandparkcounselors7036 what makes a trigger a dud? I'm thinking about getting overwatch trigger
@@orlandparkcounselors7036 wow awesome info thx. Should I worry about what trigger shoe I pair up with a connector. Like maybe a short reset connector from ghost with a overwatch trigger. I have a glock 34 that I want to run competition with. So I want light trigger pull with short reset
@@ryanmackenzie4981 I had an overwatch trigger with np3 (just the trigger with flat shoe) I wasn’t overly impressed. The trigger was fine but I learned that I wasn’t a fan of a flat trigger and it felt like something was dragging causing it to have a heavier pull but other than that it felt stock. I’m sure I could have found the issue and fixed it but it wasn’t worth it for me. I went back to the oem and just picked up a JG trigger kit with striker on Black Friday.
Can the shoe be interchanged with say a boogeyman trigger shoe while retaining all the engineering you did?
I'm still a little lost. I have a g19 and it's got the worst factory trigger ever. I would like to have a more predictable flat faced trigger I would like the combat trigger. Is there a way to know I can get it to 4.5 pounds? I really don't want anything lighter then that.
Love your videos quick question I got a replacement titanium firing pin for my glock 26 it will not release the regular firing pin does no problem what could be the issue And it's a lone Wolf titanium firing pen 😊 thanks.
That is because the lug of the Lone Wolf is a little bit longer than the stock OEM.
Shaving off a small amount would make it work properly
I grew up around many guns and shooting . 3.5 lbs is as low as I go . And it seams to be the spot I shoot best at. But 2 lbs you fart hard it well go off.
Johnny, do I need a snap cap to dry fire a Glock?
I just discovered your channel. Bro, did you know that you're fuckin awesome 🤣
Hi jhonny, is it possible to get the competition trigger at 5lb? Because thats the minimum for IPSC 🤔
3lb is the minimum for ipsc production with striker fired guns
Watched a Timney Trigger install in which part of the instructions is to NOT use modified parts when installing a Timney trigger. Isn't this upgraded striker an 'upgraded' part?
So which one is the competition and which one is the combat?
My only complaint about the PSA Dagger is the trigger. Still haven't narrowed down which one. Trying to find the perfect carry trigger because I've hit a wall imo on first shot accuracy do to the horrible trigger.
Try the "10 cent trigger job".
Johnny has a video on how to do it.
Buffing wheel and very fine polishing compound.
Polish everything that makes contact with another surface, because even pretty much the entire transfer bar plays a part in the trigger pull.
Pay close attention to the cruciform and striker contact surfaces.
Remember:
You're going after a bright polish to smooth up the action, not trying to remove metal.
Less is more.
@@wanderingcalamity360 this was a while back but the best of the best is the Timney Alpha. Lightest, smoothest, safest striker fire trigger of all time.
@@wade6523
I'm curious how well those would mesh with the LT Striker Control Device.
@@wanderingcalamity360 so thr only complaint I seen was maybe 1 out of 100 hard primer steel case wouldn't fire but I just put a 6lb striker spring rather than the 5lb before first shots. I haven't had an issue. Someone else also mentioned by going up to a 6lb spring that they broke the pin on their gen 5 glock dry firing without snap caps. So I'd make sure to do that too.
